Bites: Just the bill and a catwalk, please
Your support helps us to tell the story
From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.
At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.
The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.
Your support makes all the difference.As London Fashion Week kicks off, a select group of the city’s eateries have deemed themselves “official LFW restaurants” – although it's hard to work out what the criteria are. Acorn House is on the list – no doubt due to the super-cool eco credentials of executive chef Arthur Potts-Dawson.
And of course east London fashion hang-out Bistrotheque makes the grade, as does Harvey Nichols’ Fifth Floor Café, which had the clever idea of screening the catwalk shows just hours after they’ve taken place.
But Battersea’s new bar, The Brunel, isn’t on the list, even though it has come up with a fun way to celebrate the week, inviting customers to take a tip from hatman Stephen Jones and design and model their own hats, with a bottle of champers for the best ones.
It's too early to say how successful the pairing of food and fashion might actually be, though. Do fashionistas ever eat?
